Common list operations ==== **4.1.1.** Write a function which returns true if a list of integers has at least k elements. Use patterns. <code scala> def atLeastk(k: Int, l: List[Int]): Boolean = if (k == 0) ??? else ??? } </code> **4.1.2.** Write a function which returns the first ''n'' elements from a given list. The function should not be implemented as tail-recursive. <code scala> def take(n: Int, l: List[Int]): List[Int] = ??? //take(3,List(1,2,3,4,5)) = 3 </code> **4.1.3.** Write a function which //drops// the first ''n'' elements from a given list. The function should not be implemented as tail-recursive. <code scala> def drop(n: Int, l: List[Int]): List[Int] = ??? //drop(3,List(1,2,3,4,5)) = List(4,5) </code> **4.1.4.** Write a function which takes a predicate ''p: Int => Boolean'', a list ''l'' and returns a sublist of ''l'' containing those elements for which ''p'' is true. The function should be **curried**. <code scala> def takeP(p: Int => Boolean)(l: List[Int]): List[Int] = ??? //takeP(_%2 == 0)(List(1,2,3,4,5,6)) = List(2,4,6) </code> **4.1.5.** Write a function which uses a predicate to partition (split) a list. <code scala> def part(p: Int => Boolean)(l: List[Int]): (List[Int], List[Int]) = ??? // part(_%2 == 0)(List(1,2,3,4,5,6)) = (List(2,4,6),List(1,3,5)) </code>
